The games were played with 5 seconds per move for the computer and 30 seconds per move for the human. (Where unused time is lost, not saved).

I am not sure if slower time settings favoring the human is still true -- AlphaGo works a little bit differently from traditional computer go programs.

Earlier versions of AlphaGo against Fan Hui, the slower official matches were 5-0 in favor of AlphaGo, whereas in the unofficial blitz games, Fan Hui managed to win some games.
